Hi :bowl

I like lots of things. I enjoy cities because of all the activity and people. I find it really stimulating. I guess for that reason I like going round shops and cafes, lots of people and all the colour of their lives. I like being a part of that. There is so much choice in cities and large towns, I always find that exciting. But I'm not keen on all the pollution and congestion that goes with it - I love the freedom of the countryside - seeing things in their natural state. It helps keep me grounded and I find it uplifting too.

I love animals. Dogs, cats, and wild things too. I think its incredible the way they all have their routines and independent lives - I think its so amazing the way that it all meshes together! So I enjoy observing the outdoors and being able to stroke and interact with pets.

I love receiving the christmas cards which I'm getting through the post at the moment. It really makes me feel wanted and appreciated. So I'm enjoying that :sled

I'd like to go skiing someday. I last went when I was about eleven and I really want to learn how to do it properly. I think I'd really enjoy renting a place with friends where we can ski and meet up for a gossip over cups of steaming hot chocolate and compare the size of our bruises!

lots of love

I enjoy recovery. I enjoy being able to talk to someone who I trust so much. (my therapist who has helped me see how much there really is out there)
I definitely enjoy doing and going to see artwork. I love to go to museums but I just don't do it enough.
I love to have conversations..Hee!
I enjoy dancing. Haven't danced in a long time, but I will always love it.
I enjoy listening to people who speak other accents :winky and languages than myself..:love
I enjoy looking through all my old writings and finding things that I have forgot about over the years.
I enjoy collaging (but I don't do that enough either)

Wow, I didn't know I enjoyed anything. I need to get back into all this..

What do I enjoy doing?

Hmmm, this could be difficult ... I'm not sure if the fact I am struggling to think of anything is because I don't enjoy anything at all so there's nothing to write, OR, is because there's just so many things I can't pick them out :muhaha :ohboy
